Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)." The new guidance is intended to enhance transparency and disclosures by requiring public entities to provide disaggregated disclosures of certain categories of expenses on an annual and interim basis. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures." The new guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation and information on income taxes paid. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendment in this update should be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures." The ASU expands reportable segment disclosure requirements by requiring disclosures of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. The ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual identified as the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment's profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Additionally, ASU 2023-07 requires all segment profit or loss and assets disclosures to be provided on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning December 15, 2024.

As allowed by Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 718, the Company has made an estimate of expected forfeitures based on its historical experience and is recognizing compensation cost only for those stock-based compensation awards expected to vest.
The Company's omnibus incentive plan ("the Plan") allows for the granting of stock awards and options to purchase common stock. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options can be awarded under the plan. No option will be exercisable for longer than
ten years
after the date of grant. The Company has approved and reserved a number of shares to be issued upon exercise of the outstanding options that is adequate to cover all exercises. As of June 30, 2025, the Plan had
686,270
shares available for future awards. Compensation expense for stock options and stock awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, generally
three
to
five years
for stock options,
three years
for employee restricted stock awards,
three years
for employee performance share awards, and
one
to
three years
for non-employee director restricted stock awards. Certain awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the plans) or other qualifying events.

ASC 718 requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The weighted average fair values of the stock options granted under the Plan were calculated using either the Black-Scholes model or the Binomial model, whichever was deemed to be most appropriate. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yields of
0.6
%; expected volatilities of
26
%; risk-free interest rates of
4.5
%; and expected lives of
5.2
years. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yields of
0.6
%; expected volatilities of
28
%; risk-free interest rates of
4.1
%; and expected lives of
5.0
years.
The Company used a projected expected life for each award granted based on historical experience of employees’ exercise behavior. Expected volatilities are based on the Company’s historical volatility levels. Dividend yields are based on the Company’s historical dividend yields. Risk-free interest rates are based on the implied yields currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life.

Table of Contents
The Company's performance share (“PS”) awards provide the recipients the right to receive a certain number of shares of the Company’s common stock in the future, subject to an EBITDA performance hurdle, where vesting is dependent upon the Company achieving a certain EBITDA percentage growth over the performance period, or relative total shareholder return ("TSR") where vesting is dependent upon the Company’s TSR performance over the performance period relative to a comparator group consisting of the Russell 2000 index constituents. For grants made in 2025, the performance metrics are comprised of an EBITDA performance hurdle, where vesting is dependent upon the Company achieving a certain EBITDA percentage growth over the performance period and modified based on the Company's TSR performance over the performance period relative to a comparator group consisting of the Russell 2000 index constituents. Expense is measured based on the fair value of the grant at the date of grant. A Monte-Carlo simulation has been used to estimate the fair value. The assumptions used in the fair value determination were risk free interest rates of
4.3
% and
4.2
%; dividend yields of
0.0
% and
0.0
%; volatilities of
26
% and
25
%; and initial TSR's of -
8.8
% and
10.3
%, in each case for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Expense is estimated based on the number of shares expected to vest, assuming the requisite service period is rendered and the probable outcome of the performance condition is achieved. The estimate is revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of shares likely to vest differs from previous estimates. Expense is ultimately adjusted based on the actual achievement of service and performance targets. The PS will cliff vest
100
% at the end of the third year following the grant in accordance with the performance metrics set forth. Grants may be subject to a mandatory holding period of
one year
from the vesting date. For PS awards granted in 2024 and 2025, grants are subject to such holding period.
As of June 30, 2025 and 2024, there were $
26,849
and $
26,557
, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. As of June 30, 2025, the unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately
1.6
years. The Company estimates that share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 will be approximately $
18,800
.
Repurchase of Common Stock
The Company's Board of Directors has approved a stock repurchase program. The total authorization under this program is
3,763,038
shares. Since the inception of the program in June 1999, a total of
3,379,862
shares have been repurchased. The Company intends to acquire shares from time to time at prevailing market prices if and to the extent it deems it is advisable to do so based on its assessment of corporate cash flow, market conditions and other factors. Open market repurchases of common stock could be made pursuant to a share repurchase agreement in compliance with Rule 10b-18 or a trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which would permit common stock to be repurchased at a time that the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws or self-imposed trading restrictions. The Company also repurchases (withholds) shares from employees in connection with the tax settlement of vested shares and/or exercised stock options, as applicable, under the Company's omnibus incentive plan. Such repurchases of shares from employees are funded with existing cash on hand. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased
237,834
shares from open market purchases and/or withheld shares from employees in connection with the tax settlement of vested shares and/or exercised stock options, as applicable, under the Company's omnibus incentive plan at an average cost of $
162.25
. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company purchased
36,194
shares from employees in connection with the tax settlement of vested shares and/or exercised stock options, as applicable, under the Company's omnibus incentive plan at an average cost of $
144.04

In accordance with Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, which is generally based on discounted cash flows.

780,030
as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, subject to the provisions of ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The increase in goodwill is primarily due to foreign currency translation adjustments.

NOTE 6 -
EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT
In 2013, the Company and Eastman Chemical Company formed a joint venture (
66.66
% /
33.34
% ownership), St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC, to design, develop, and construct an expansion of the Company’s St. Gabriel aqueous choline chloride plant. The Company contributed the St. Gabriel plant, at cost, and all continued expansion and improvements are funded by the owners. The joint venture became operational as of July 1, 2016. St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC is a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) because the total equity at risk is not sufficient to permit the joint venture to finance its own activities without additional subordinated financial support. Additionally, voting rights (
2
votes each) are not proportionate to the owners’ obligation to absorb expected losses or receive the expected residual returns of the joint venture. The Company receives the majority of the production offtake capacity, which may be adjusted from time to time to the extent the owners agree as such, and absorbs operating expenses approximately proportional to the actual percentage of offtake. The joint venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting since the Company is not the primary beneficiary as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the joint venture that most significantly impact its economic performance. The Company recognized a loss of $
123
and $
245
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $
122
and $
243
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, relating to its portion of the joint venture's expenses in other expense. The Company made capital contributions to the investment totaling $
75
and $
105
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $
38
and $
80
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The carrying value of the joint venture at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $
3,716
and $
3,856
, respectively, and is recorded in "Other non-current assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 7 –
REVOLVING LOAN
On July 27, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2022 Credit Agreement") with certain lenders in the form of a senior secured revolving credit facility, due on July 27, 2027. The 2022 Credit Agreement allows for up to $
550,000
of borrowing. The loans may be used for working capital, letters of credit, and other corporate purposes and may be drawn upon at the Company’s discretion. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the total balance outstanding on the 2022 Credit Agreement amounted to $
190,000
. There are
no
installment payments required on the revolving loans; they may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty, and all outstanding amounts are due on the maturity date.
Amounts outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement are subject to an interest rate equal to a fluctuating rate as defined by the 2022 Credit Agreement plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate is based upon the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement, and the interest rate was
5.43
% at June 30, 2025. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving loan, which is based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement and ranges from
0.150
% to
0.225
% (
0.150
% at June 30, 2025). The unused portion of the revolving loan amounted to $
360,000
at June 30, 2025. The Company is also required to pay, as applicable, letter of credit fees, administrative agent fees, and other fees to the arrangers and lenders.
Costs associated with the issuance of the revolving loans are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the 2022 Credit Agreement, which is not materially different than the effective interest method. Capitalized costs net of accumulated amortization were $
599
and $
743
at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and are included in "Other non-current assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense pertaining to these costs totaled $
73
and $
144
for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and are included in "Interest expense, net" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
The 2022 Credit Agreement contains quarterly covenants requiring the consolidated leverage ratio to be less than a certain maximum ratio and the consolidated interest coverage ratio to exceed a certain minimum ratio. At June 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. Indebtedness under the Company’s loan agreements is secured by assets of the Company.

NOTE 9 –
INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, was
21.9
% and
22.2
%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the quarter was primarily due to higher tax benefits from stock-based compensation. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was
22.3
% and
21.8
%, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to lower tax benefits from stock-based compensation and an unfavorable impact from foreign tax rates.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law in the United States which includes a broad range of tax provisions. While the Company currently does not anticipate the OBBBA will have a material impact on its estimated annual effective tax rate in 2025, we will continue to assess its impact.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company regularly reviews its deferred tax assets for recoverability and would establish a valuation allowance if it believed that such assets may not be recovered, taking into consideration historical operating results, expectations of future earnings, changes in its operations and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes utilizing ASC 740-10, "Income Taxes". ASC 740-10 clarifies whether or not to recognize assets or liabilities for tax positions taken that may be challenged by a tax authority. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken. This interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosures. The application of ASC 740-10 requires judgment related to the uncertainty in income taxes and could impact our effective tax rate.
The Company files income tax return
s in the U.S. and in various states and foreign countries. As of June 30, 2025, in the major jurisdictions where the Company operates, it is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020. The Company had approximately $
6,852
and $
6,720
of unrecognized tax benefits, which are included in "Other long-term obligations" on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company includes interest expense or income as well as potential penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of "Income tax expense" in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. Total accrued interest and penalties
14
Table of Contents
related to uncertain tax positions at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were approximately $
2,485
and $
2,352
, respectively, and are included in "Other long-term obligations" on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The European Union ("EU") member states formally adopted the EU's Pillar Two Directive on December 15, 2022, which was established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. Pillar Two generally provides for a 15 percent minimum effective tax rate for the jurisdictions where multinational enterprises operate. While the Company does not anticipate that this will have a material impact on its tax provision or effective tax rate, the Company continues to monitor evolving tax legislation in the jurisdictions in which it operates.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is obligated to make rental payments under non-cancelable operating and finance leases. Aggregate future minimum rental payments required under these leases at June 30, 2025 are disclosed in Note 18,
Leases
.
The Company’s Verona, Missouri facility, while held by a prior owner, Syntex Agribusiness, Inc. (“Syntex”), was designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") as a Superfund site and placed on the National Priorities List in 1983 because of dioxin contamination on portions of the site. Remediation was conducted by Syntex under the oversight of the EPA and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. The Company is indemnified by the sellers under its May 2001 asset purchase agreement covering its acquisition of the Verona, Missouri facility for potential liabilities associated with the Superfund site. One of the sellers, in turn, has the benefit of certain contractual indemnification by Syntex in relation to the implementation of the above-described Superfund remedy. In June 2023, in response to a Special Notice Letter received from the EPA in 2022, BCP Ingredients, Inc. ("BCP"), the Company's subsidiary that operates the site, Syntex, EPA, and the State of Missouri entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (“ASAOC”) for a focused remedial investigation/feasibility study ("RI/FS") under which (a) BCP will conduct a source investigation of potential source(s) of releases of 1,4-dioxane and chlorobenzene at a portion of the site and (b) BCP and Syntex will complete a RI/FS to determine a potential remedy, if any is required. Activities under the ASAOC are underway and are expected to continue for some period of time.
Separately, in June 2022, the EPA conducted an inspection of BCP’s Verona, Missouri facility (“2022 EPA Inspection”) which was followed by BCP entering into an Administrative Order for Compliance on Consent (“AOC”) with the EPA in relation to its risk management program at the Verona facility. Further, in January 2023, BCP entered into an Amended AOC with the EPA whereby the parties agreed to the extension of certain timelines. BCP timely completed all requirements under the Amended AOC. In November 2023, BCP received a notice from the Environment and Natural Resources Division of the U.S Department of Justice (“DOJ”) primarily related to the 2022 EPA Inspection, which extended the opportunity to discuss alleged violations of Sections 112(r)(7) of the Clean Air Act and regulations in 40 C.F.R. Part 68, commonly known as the Risk Management Plan Rule (“RMP Rule”). BCP participated in such discussions during 2024, and in December 2024, BCP reached a settlement with the EPA and DOJ to resolve these alleged violations. Pursuant to the settlement, which was entered into on January 31, 2025, BCP agreed to: (a) pay a $
300
civil penalty; (b) complete a new scrubber system project; and (c) spend $
350
to implement projects benefiting the surrounding community, such as emergency equipment for the local fire department and
two
vehicles to be used as mobile health clinics. The amount associated with this settlement was consistent with the amount previously accrued as a loss contingency.

In addition to the above, from time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings, litigation, claims and assessments. While it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of each of these matters, management believes that the ultimate outcome of such matters will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows.
NOTE 16 –
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company has a number of financial instruments,
none
of which are held for trading purposes. The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is necessarily required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value, and, accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The carrying value of debt approximates fair value as the interest rate is based on market and the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The Company’s financial instruments also include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, which are carried at cost and approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Cash and cash equivalents included $
1,432
and $
1,040
, in money market funds as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and $
15,267
and $
0
in certificates of deposit with maturities of three months or less at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The certificates of deposit are categorized in level two of the fair value hierarchy as defined by ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement". Due to the short-term nature of the instrument, the Company has determined the cost approximates fair value.
Non-current assets at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 included $
12,080
and $
11,465
, respectively, of rabbi trust funds related to the Company's deferred compensation plan. The money market and rabbi trust funds are valued using level one inputs, as defined by ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement.”
NOTE 17 –
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company provides services under a contractual agreement to St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC. These services include accounting, information technology, quality control, and purchasing services, as well as operation of the St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC plant. The Company also sells raw materials to St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC. These raw materials are used in the production of finished goods that are, in turn, sold by Saint Gabriel CC Company, LLC to the Company for resale to unrelated parties. As such, the sale of these raw materials to St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC in this scenario lacks economic substance and therefore the Company does not include them in net sales within the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
Payments for the services the Company provided amounted to $
1,212
and $
2,339
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $
1,120
and $
2,212
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The raw materials purchased and subsequently sold amounted to $
10,821
and $
20,746
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $
7,301
and $
13,633
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. These services and raw materials are primarily recorded in cost of goods sold, net of the finished goods received from St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC of $
8,983
and $
16,901
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $
5,713
and
10,684
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had receivables of $
4,577
and $
3,893
, respectively, recorded in accounts receivable from St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC for services rendered and raw materials sold. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had payables of $
3,529
and $
2,831
, respectively, recorded in accounts payable for finished goods received from St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC. The Company had payables in the amount of $
296
related to non-contractual monies owed to St. Gabriel CC Company, LLC, recorded in accounts payable as of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

NOTE 18 –
LEASES
The Company has both real estate leases and equipment leases. The main types of equipment leases include forklifts, trailers, printers and copiers, railcars, and trucks. Leases are categorized as both operating leases and finance leases. The Company elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components and recognizes the combined amount on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Management determined that since the Company has a centralized treasury function, the parent company would either fund or guarantee a subsidiary's loan for borrowing over a similar term. As such, the Company's management determined it is appropriate to utilize a corporate based borrowing rate for all locations. The Company developed
four
tranches of leases based on lease terms and these tranches reflect the composition of the current lease portfolio. The Company's borrowing history shows that interest rates of a term loan or a line of credit depend on the duration of the loan rather than the nature of the assets purchased by those funds. Based on this understanding, the Company elected to use a portfolio approach to discount rates, applying corporate rates to the tranches of leases based on lease terms. Based on the Company's risk rating, the Company applied the following discount rates for new leases entered into during the second quarter of 2025: (1)

Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the specified contractual obligations set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. We expect our operations to continue generating sufficient cash flow to fund working capital requirements and necessary capital investments. We are actively pursuing additional acquisition candidates. We could seek additional bank loans or access to financial markets to fund such acquisitions, our operations, working capital, necessary capital investments or other cash requirements should we deem it necessary to do so.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $65,427 at June 30, 2025 from $49,515 at December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025, the Company had $53,040 of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries. We presently intend to permanently reinvest these funds in foreign operations by continuing to make additional plant related investments, and potentially invest in partnerships or acquisitions; therefore, we do not currently expect to repatriate these funds in order to fund U.S. operations or obligations. However, if these funds are needed for U.S. operations, we could be required to pay additional withholding taxes to repatriate these funds. Working capital was $226,718 at June 30, 2025 as compared to $156,085 at December 31, 2024, an increase of $70,633. Significant cash payments during the six months ended June 30, 2025 included repurchases of common stock of $38,589, the payment of the 2024 declared dividend in 2025 of $28,265, income taxes paid of $26,263, and capital expenditures and intangible assets acquired of $12,372.

Operating Activities
The increase in cash flows from operating activities was primarily driven by the increase in net earnings, partially offset by lower depreciation and amortization and the impact from changes in working capital.
Investing Activities
We continue to invest in corporate projects, improvements across all production facilities, and intangible assets. Total investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets were $12,372 and $13,788 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Financing Activities
During 2025, we borrowed $63,000 to fund the 2024 dividend, bonus payments and share repurchases. We made total loan payments of $63,000, resulting in $360,000 available under the 2022 Credit Agreement (see Note 7,
Revolving Loan
) as of June 30, 2025.
We have an approved stock repurchase program. The total authorization under this program is 3,763,038 shares. Since the inception of the program in June 1999, a total of 3,379,862 shares have been repurchased. We intend to acquire shares from time to time at prevailing market prices if and to the extent we deem it is advisable to do so based on our assessment of corporate cash flow, market conditions and other factors. Open market repurchases of common stock could be made pursuant to a trading plan established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which would permit common stock to be repurchased at a time that we might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws or self-imposed trading restrictions. We also purchase (withhold) shares from employees in connection with the tax settlement of vested shares and/or exercised stock options, as applicable, under the Company's omnibus incentive plan. Share repurchases are funded with existing cash on hand or borrowings against our 2022 credit agreement. Repurchases of common stock were $38,589 and $5,213 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Proceeds from stock options exercised were $6,222 and $9,682 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Dividend payments were $28,265 and $25,568 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in checking accounts, certificates of deposit, and money market investment funds. Additionally, as of June 30, 2025, our borrowings were under a revolving loan bearing interest at a fluctuating rate as defined by the 2022 Credit Agreement plus an applicable rate (See Note
7
,
Revolving Loan
). The applicable rate is based upon our consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates, applied to our borrowings at June 30, 2025, would result in an increase or decrease in annual interest expense and a corresponding reduction or increase in cash flow of approxi
mately $1,900. We are exposed to commodity price risks, including prices of our primary raw materials. Our objective is to seek a reduction i
n the potential negative earnings impact of raw material pricing arising in our business activities. We manage these financial exposures, where possible, through pricing and operational means. Our practices may change as economic conditions change.
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates, including the interest rate relating to the 2022 Credit Agreement.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The financial condition and results of operations of our foreign subsidiaries are reported in local currencies and then translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable currency exchange rate for inclusion in our consolidated financial statements. Therefore, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to these currencies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Prior to filing this report, we completed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2025.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in the internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
Part
II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, we are involved in a variety of lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings, from time to time, including commercial and contract disputes, labor and employment matters, product liability claims, environmental liabilities, trade regulation matters, intellectual property disputes and tax-related matters. Further, in connection with normal operations at our plant facilities, our manufacturing sites may, from time to time, be subject to inspections or inquiries by the EPA and other agencies. To the extent any consent orders or other agreements are entered into as a result of findings from such inspections or inquiries, the Company is committed to ensuring compliance with such orders or agreements.
